THIS IS MY GAME, MOTHERFUCKER, MOTHERFUCKER.

this is the energy I want to bring into the rest of my life.
I really should know better sometimes than to talk to child-free friends about parenting problems. I rarely get the kind of support I’m looking for, and that’s fine; they have a different perspective, and that’s okay.

but I also always leave those convos feeling like the bad guy.

on a #pentiment reply and - as an artist - this moment always catches me and makes me sit and go “yes, this.”

anyone who says video games aren’t art isn’t paying attention. some, maybe. but they definitely *can* be, and this one both *is* art and is *about* art.

white ICE agents rounding up Black people is particularly wild.

like first white folks brought Black people here against their will and enslaved them, then we fought to keep them oppressed, and now we have the fucking gall to act like they did something wrong.

the caucacity is appalling.

the tragedy of #syrilkarn is that he always had a moral compass, he was just so surrounded by bad influences and acting out of his own trauma and he never figured out how to do better. #andor

watching #acrownofcandy and getting to the part where the Bulbian Church declares war on “junk food” and says some people are unclean in 2025 is fuckin wild.

frozen, factory-made lasagna is fine, actually. it’s not as-good-as handmade, sure, but it’s one of the few things that’s legitimately fine.

once you get to family-sized or larger, if you have access to an oven, you’re best-served by using it to heat said lasagna instead of a microwave, tho.
Okay, lets do this.

One like, one opinion that's not on politics.

I said this in a comment to someone else but I think it bears repeating.

if all your government offers is a military and laws, that’s not a government. a government also offers services. it doesn’t just scare its populace; it also cares for them. [more]

this is terrifying
1. We have learned that 20 hospitals have received subpoenas from the department of justice seeking records on transgender patients.

We can confirm at least one hospital has received them from a person familiar with the situation.

The latest from S. Baum.

no.

may Ken Paxton know precisely as much peace as every single pregnant person, abortion provider, and activist in his state has over the last ten years.

oh hey slippery slope, there you are. right on schedule.
1. Earlier this year, Trump erased transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument webpage, digitally burning the history we helped create.

Now, he's doing the same to bisexual people.

No marginalized group will be safe from the admin's moving targets.
